Charged us $28 for two drinks and two shots. Bartender got us kicked out for questioning why she was up charging us for the shots. Not a good experience. Charged us $14 for two shots which is definitely not right. They made us pay anyway and got aggressive as we left. They tried to instigate a fight as we were leaving. Not cool.

It’s the Hawk. Not much more needs to be said.

I was VERY disappointed when I have waited until I was 21 to come to the hawk and a man denied me with the paper the DMV gave me. How am I shouting act, he was very rude working as a bouncer on 3/6/2025. I feel very disrespected and uncomfortable because he would not allow me entry.

One of the shittiest places I have ever been in my whole life🫶🏼

If you are gonna go to a bar then take the trip to downtown KC, not worth it one bit.

Only let in students, staff was very rude. I’m trying to drink to escape so I don’t kill myself and get told I can’t come in cause I’m not in college.

Started going to the "Hawk" in fall 1982. Drinking age at that time was 18 for 3.2% beer. It was a beer only joint back then. I was there for just about every Thursday barrel night.......which meant I usually missed my Friday morning classes. The place has changed a lot since the 1980's. I have many fond memories of my visits to the Hawk. Wish I could go back in time and live it all over again.

would give a zero if i could, im 21 and wanted to enjoy a drink with my friends who are still in college but i was not allowed even with cops out front because i did not have an id for a college. i should not get penalized for not being in college when im trying to take off from my 7:30-6 and enjoy my weekend

They let in minors who will falsely accuse people of crimes they didn’t commit
